Kanban for Kids (or "How I used agile to become a homeschool parent in 24 hours")

Activities

  • Decorating doors and mailboxes so neighbors can see the artwork
  • Puzzles
  • Hide and seek; "More like a scavenger hunt (hide a bunch of toys and take a closeup photo with phone and put them in a photo folder. Then child takes phone and collects all the toys in the photos. I thought it wouldn't work but he actually did it for a long time and was so excited to show me his basket. and ended up giving me an extra hour alone because he got distracted with each item anyway."

iPad apps

  • PBSKids
